Answer:
x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Compare the given formula to the equations shown in the attachment. First of all, you see that all of the numbers are scaled by a factor of 4. Removing that gives ...
[tex]r=\dfrac{6.6}{1+1.1\cos{\theta}}=\dfrac{1.1\cdot6}{1+1.1\cos{\theta}}[/tex]
This matches the formula for the hyperbola with e=1.1 and d=6, for a directrix of x = 6.
Mary invested $200 for 3 years at 5% per annum. John invested $300 at the same rate. If they both received the same amount of interest how much did john invest???
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
please assist me with the power of i(imaginary)
Let's raise i to various powers starting with 0,1,2,3...
i^0 = 1
i^1 = i
i^2 = ( sqrt(-1) )^2 = -1
i^3 = i^2*i = -1*i = -i
i^4 = (i^2)^2 = (-1)^2 = 1
i^5 = i^4*i = 1*i = i
i^6 = i^5*i = i*i = i^2 = -1
We see that the pattern repeats itself after 4 iterations. The four items to memorize are
i^0 = 1
i^1 = i
i^2 = -1
i^3 = -i
It bounces back and forth between 1 and i, alternating in sign as well. This could be one way to memorize the pattern.
To figure out something like i^25, we simply divide the exponent 25 over 4 to get the remainder. In this case, the remainder of 25/4 is 1 since 24/4 = 6, and 25 is one higher than 24.
This means i^25 = i^1 = i
Likewise,
i^5689 = i^1 = i
because 5689/4 = 1422 remainder 1. The quotient doesn't play a role at all so you can ignore it entirely

The electric field in the xy-plane due to an infinite line of charge along the z-axis is a gradient field with a potential function
V(x,y)equals=c ln (ro/√ x²+y²)
where c > 0 is a constant and r0 is a reference distance at which the potential is assumed to be 0.
Required:
Find the components of the electric field in the x- and y-directions, where E(x,y) =∇V (x,y )
Answer:
c(x,y)/(x²+y²)
Step-by-step explanation:
Since E(x,y) = -∇V (x,y ) and V(x,y) =c ln (ro/√ x²+y²)
Let ro/√(x²+y²) = u and √(x²+y²) = v
dV/du = c/u = c√(x²+y²)/ro,
du/dv = -ro/(x²+y²) = -ro/² and dv/dx = x/√(x²+y²)
Using the chain rule,
So dV/dx = dV/du × du/dv × dv/dx
= c√(x²+y²)/ro × -ro/(x²+y²) × x/√(x²+y²)
dV/dx = -cx/(x²+y²)
- dV/dx = -(-cx/(x²+y²)) = cx/(x²+y²)
Also, dv/dy = y/√(x²+y²)
Using the chain rule
dV/dy = dV/du × du/dv × dv/dy
= c√(x²+y²)/ro × -ro/(x²+y²) × y/√(x²+y²)
dV/dy = -cy/(x²+y²)
- dV/dy = -(-cy/(x²+y²)) = cy/(x²+y²)
E(x,y) = -∇V (x,y )
= -(dV/dx)i + [-(dV/dy)]j
= [cx/(x²+y²)]i +[ cy/(x²+y²)]j
= c(x,y)/(x²+y²)
Before agreeing to purchase a large order of polyethylene sheaths for a particular type of high-pressure oil-filled submarine power cable, a company wants to see conclusive evidence that the true standard deviation of sheath thickness is less than 0.05 mm. What hypotheses should be tested, and why?The appropriate hypotheses areH0: σ0.05 mmversusHa: σ0.05 mm.With this formulation, the burden of proof is on the data to show that the requirementbeen met.In this context, what are the type I and type II errors?In this context, the type I error occurs if wea shipment that should have been . A type II error occurs if we a shipment that should have been.Need Help? Read It Talk to a Tutor
Answer:
Null and alternative hypothesis:
[tex]H_0: \mu=0.05\\\\H_a:\mu< 0.05[/tex]
The alternative hypothesis is the one that needs evidence to be supported, while the null hypothesis is the one that can be nullified (reject).
Only if there is enough evidence that thickness is less than 0.05 the null hypothesis will be rejected and the alternative hypothesis claim supported.
A Type I error happens when a true null hypothesis is rejected. In this case we will be purchase a order that is not fulfilling the thickness required.
A Type II error happens when a false null hypothesis is failed to be rejected. In this case, the order has a thickness significantly smaller than 0.05, but the sample gives no enough evidence and the order will not be purchased.
Step-by-step explanation:
A hypothesis test to see conclusive evidence that the true standard deviation of sheath thickness is less than 0.05 mm will have the following hypothesis:
[tex]H_0: \mu=0.05\\\\H_a:\mu< 0.05[/tex]
The alternative hypothesis Ha will state that the true mean is significantly smaller than 0.05, while the null hypothesis H0 will state the opposite: that the true mean is not significantly smaller than 0.05.
The alternative hypothesis is the one that needs evidence to be supported, while the null hypothesis is the one that can be nullified (reject).
Only if there is enough evidence that thickness is less than 0.05 the null hypothesis will be rejected and the alternative hypothesis claim supported.
Determine whether the sequence converges or diverges. If it converges, find the limit (if an answer does not exist, enter DNE.)
{lnn/ln3}
limn→[infinity]{lnn/ln3n}=________
Answer:
The sequence converges. The limit DNE.
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the limit of n as n tends to infinity (in other words, positive infinity) in {Ln(n)/ Ln(3n)}
Positive infinity values for n start from 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,...,infinity
So I solved for values of n, up to n=20. All values are rounded up to 3 decimal places; for better accuracy.
When n is 1, the function is equal to 0.000
When n is 2, the function is = 0.387
When n is 3, the function = 0.500
When n is 4, the function = 0.558
When n is 5, the function = 0.594
When n is 6, the function = 0.619
When n is 7, the function = 0.639
When n is 8, the function = 0.654
When n is 9, the function = 0.667
When n is 10, the function = 0.677
When n is 11, the function = 0.686
When n is 12, the function = 0.693
When n is 13, the function = 0.700
When n is 14, the function = 0.706
When n is 15, the function = 0.711
When n is 16, the function = 0.716
When n is 17, the function = 0.721
When n is 18, the function = 0.725
When n is 19, the function = 0.728
When n is 20, the function = 0.732
We say there is a convergence because the space between the values of n gets smaller and smaller as n tends to infinity and there is no definite limit. Limit DNE.
Assume that adults have IQ scores that are normally distributed with a mean of 94 and a standard deviation of 14. Find the probability that a randomly selected adult has an IQ greater than 107.1. (Hint: Draw a graph.) To help visualize the area of interest, draw a standard normal curve. Label the given values for x and mu . x 94107.1
Answer:
0.6517
Step-by-step explanation:
z = (x - μ)/σ
Z= standard score
x= observed value
μ= mean of the sample
σ= standard deviation of the sample
z = (x - μ)/σ = (107.1 - 94 )/ 14 = 0.9357
probability that a randomly selected adult has an IQ greater than 107.1. = P(Z > 0.935) = 0.6517
NB: the value is 0.6517 is pulled from the z table which can be found at the back of most math text.

The Rocky Mountain district sales manager of Rath Publishing Inc., a college textbook publishing company, claims that the sales representatives make an average of 41 sales calls per week on professors. Several reps say that this estimate is too low. To investigate, a random sample of 38 sales representatives reveals that the mean number of calls made last week was 42. The standard deviation of the sample is 3.9 calls. Using the 0.025 significance level, can we conclude that the mean number of calls per salesperson per week is more than 41?H0 : µ = 40
H1 : µ > 401. Compute the value of the test statistic. 2. What is your decision regarding H0?
Answer:
1. Test statistic t=1.581.
2. The null hypothesis H0 failed to be rejected.
There is not enough evidence to support the claim that the mean number of calls per salesperson per week is significantly more than 41.
NOTE: if the null hypothesis is µ = 40, there is enough evidence to support the claim that the mean number of calls per salesperson per week is significantly more than 40 (test statistic t=3.161).
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a hypothesis test for the population mean.
The claim is that the mean number of calls per salesperson per week is significantly more than 41.
Then, the null and alternative hypothesis are:
[tex]H_0: \mu=41\\\\H_a:\mu> 41[/tex]
The significance level is 0.025.
The sample has a size n=38.
The sample mean is M=42.
As the standard deviation of the population is not known, we estimate it with the sample standard deviation, that has a value of s=3.9.
The estimated standard error of the mean is computed using the formula:
[tex]s_M=\dfrac{s}{\sqrt{n}}=\dfrac{3.9}{\sqrt{38}}=0.633[/tex]
Then, we can calculate the t-statistic as:
[tex]t=\dfrac{M-\mu}{s/\sqrt{n}}=\dfrac{42-41}{0.633}=\dfrac{1}{0.633}=1.581[/tex]
The degrees of freedom for this sample size are:
[tex]df=n-1=38-1=37[/tex]
This test is a right-tailed test, with 37 degrees of freedom and t=1.581, so the P-value for this test is calculated as (using a t-table):
[tex]\text{P-value}=P(t>1.581)=0.061[/tex]
As the P-value (0.061) is bigger than the significance level (0.025), the effect is not significant.
The null hypothesis failed to be rejected.
There is not enough evidence to support the claim that the mean number of calls per salesperson per week is significantly more than 41.
For µ = 40:
This is a hypothesis test for the population mean.
The claim is that the mean number of calls per salesperson per week is significantly more than 40.
Then, the null and alternative hypothesis are:
[tex]H_0: \mu=40\\\\H_a:\mu> 40[/tex]
The significance level is 0.025.
The sample has a size n=38.
The sample mean is M=42.
As the standard deviation of the population is not known, we estimate it with the sample standard deviation, that has a value of s=3.9.
The estimated standard error of the mean is computed using the formula:
[tex]s_M=\dfrac{s}{\sqrt{n}}=\dfrac{3.9}{\sqrt{38}}=0.633[/tex]
Then, we can calculate the t-statistic as:
[tex]t=\dfrac{M-\mu}{s/\sqrt{n}}=\dfrac{42-40}{0.633}=\dfrac{2}{0.633}=3.161[/tex]
The degrees of freedom for this sample size are:
[tex]df=n-1=38-1=37[/tex]
This test is a right-tailed test, with 37 degrees of freedom and t=3.161, so the P-value for this test is calculated as (using a t-table):
[tex]\text{P-value}=P(t>3.161)=0.002[/tex]
As the P-value (0.002) is smaller than the significance level (0.025), the effect is significant.
The null hypothesis is rejected.

Enter your answer as a simplified fraction, in
the box
COS A
Answer:
[tex] cos A = \frac{5}{13} [/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The given triangle, ∆ABC is a right triangle.
To find cos A, we'd need to apply the trigonometric ratio formula, which is cos A = adjacent length/hypotenuse length
From the ∆ given,
AC = adjacent = 15,
BC = opposite = 36
We are not given the hypotenuse length AB.
==>Find the hypotenuse length AB, using the Pythagorean theorem formula:
c² = a² + b²
AB² = 15² + 36² = 225 + 1296 = 1521
AB = √1521
AB = 39
==>Find cos A:
cos A = adjacent/hypotenuse
[tex] cos A = \frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse} [/tex]
Adjacent = AC = 15
Hypotenuse = AB = 39
[tex] cos A = \frac{15}{39} [/tex]

Answer:
Event Probability
Heads [tex]\dfrac{3}{5}[/tex]
Tails [tex]\dfrac{2}{5}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
If a coin is tossed 25 times, then from the given table it is clear that
Number of heads = 15
Number of tails = 10
Total number of tosses = 15+10 = 25
We know that,
[tex]Probability=\dfrac{\text{Favorable outcomes}}{\text{Total number of outcomes}}[/tex]
[tex]P(H)=\dfrac{\text{Number of heads}}{\text{Total number of tosses}}=\dfrac{15}{25}=\dfrac{3}{5}[/tex]
[tex]P(T)=\dfrac{\text{Number of tails}}{\text{Total number of tosses}}=\dfrac{10}{25}=\dfrac{2}{5}[/tex]
So, probability distribution table is
Event Probability
Heads [tex]\dfrac{3}{5}[/tex]
Tails [tex]\dfrac{2}{5}[/tex]
According to the properties for a probability distribution, the sum of probability of all events is 1.
Since,
[tex]\dfrac{3}{5}+\dfrac{2}{5}=\dfrac{3+2}{5}=\dfrac{5}{5}=1[/tex]
Hence, the distribution meets the properties for a probability distribution.

The hourly rate for a staff nurse is £13.75.
A staff nurse works 30 hours a week and 6 hours overtime at time-and-a-half.
What is her total pay for the week?
Answer:
P = £536.25
Her total pay for the week is £536.25
Step-by-step explanation:
The total pay can be written as;
P = t1(r1) + t2(r2)
Where;
t1 = normal time
r1 = normal time pay rate
t2 = overtime
r2 = overtime pay rate
Given;
t1 = 30 hours
t2 = 6 hours
r1 = £13.75
r2 = 1.5(r1) = 1.5(£13.75)
Substituting the given values into the equation 1;
P = 30(£13.75) + 6(1.5(£13.75))
P = £536.25
Her total pay for the week is £536.25
To test H0: μ=100 versus H1:≠100, a simple random sample size of nequals=24 is obtained from a population that is known to be normally distributed. Answer parts (a)-(d).(a) If x =104.2 and s=9.6, compute the test statistic.t= _ (Round to three decimal places as needed.)(b) If the researcher decides to test this hypothesis at the α=0.01 level of significance, determine the critical values.The critical values are __ .(c) Draw a t-distribution that depicts the critical region(s). Which of the following graphs shows the critical region(s) in thet-distribution?(d) Will the researcher reject the null hypothesis?
Answer:
a) Test statistic = 1.960
b) The critical values include -2.50 and 2.50.
The critical regions of rejection are thus
t < -2.50 or t > 2.50
c) The sketch of the curve is presented in the attached image to this solution. The shaded parents indicate the rejection regions.
d) The t-statistic obtained (1.96), lies within the acceptance region (-2.50 ≤ x ≤ 2.50), we fail to reject the null hypothesis.
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Test statistic is computed using the expression
t = (x - μ₀)/σₓ
x = Sample mean = 104.2
μ₀ = the standard we are comparing Against
σₓ = standard error of the mean = (σ/√n)
σ = 9.6
n = Sample size = 24
σₓ = (9.6/√24) =
t = (0.425 - 0.35) ÷ 0.07816
t = 1.9595917942 = 1.960
b) To obtain these critical values, we first find the degree of freedom
Degree of freedom = n - 1 = 24 - 1 = 23
The critical values for significance level of 0.01 and degree of freedom of 23 is given as
t(0.01, 23) = 2.50
So, since the test is two-tailled (we are testing in both directions; greater than or less than), the regions of rejection include
t < -2.50 and t > 2.50
c) since the test is two-tailled (we are testing in both directions; greater than or less than), the regions of rejection include
t < -2.50 and t > 2.50
The t-distribution curve is very similar to the normal distribution curve. The t-distribution curve is also a bell shaped curve, but it is heavier at the limits indicating that the t-distribution favours outliers more than the normal distribution.
The sketch of the curve is presented in the attached image with the shaded regions indicating the rejection region.
d) Since the t-statistic obtained (1.96), lies within the acceptance region (-2.50 ≤ x ≤ 2.50), we fail to reject the null hypothesis.

Answer:
A) 43
B) 65
Step-by-step explanation:
A) First Quartile = [tex](N+1)\frac{1}{4}[/tex]
Where N is the number of observations
=> 1st Quartile = (11+1)(1/4)
=> 1st Quartile = (12)(1/4)
=> 1st Quartile = 3rd number
=> 1st Quartile = 43B) Third Quartile = [tex](N+1)\frac{3}{4}[/tex]
=> 3rd Quartile = (11+1)(3/4)
=> 3rd Quartile = (12)(3/4)
=> 3rd Quartile = 3*3
=> 3rd Quatile = 9th number
=> 3rd Quartile = 65Given the equation y = 7 sec(6x– 30)
The period is:
The horizontal shift is:
Answer:
The period is of [tex]\frac{\pi}{3}[/tex] units.
The horizontal shift is of 30 units to the left.
Step-by-step explanation:
The secant function has the following general format:
[tex]y = A\sec{(Bx + C)}[/tex]
A represents the vertical shift.
C represents the horizontal shift. If C is positive, the shift is to the right. If it is negative, it is to the left.
The period is [tex]P = \frac{2\pi}{B}[/tex]
In this question:
[tex]y = 7\sec{6x - 30}[/tex]
So [tex]B = 6, C = -30[/tex]
Then [tex]P = \frac{2\pi}{6} = \frac{\pi}{3}[/tex]
The period is of [tex]\frac{\pi}{3}[/tex] units.
The horizontal shift is of 30 units to the left.
a. What is a residual? b. In what sense is the regression line the straight line that "best" fits the points in a scatterplot? a. What is a residual?
Answer:
a. A residual is how far off a point is from the expected value. For example, if I were to estimate the weight of my Southeastern Lubber Grasshopper, I would say it's maybe 5 ounces. But, in reality, it might be 4 ounces. So, the residual would be the reality minus the prediction, or 4 - 5, or -1 ounce.
b. The regression line is the line of predicted values for the points in the scatterplot. It tries to predict the points and make all the points be on the line.

Identify an equation in point slope form for the line parallel to y=1/2x-7 that passes through (-3,-2)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The point slope form of a straight line is expressed as
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
Where
m represents slope of the line
y1 represents the initial value of y
x1 represents the initial value of x
If two lines are parallel, it means that they have the same slope. From the equation of the given line, slope = 1/2
Therefore,
m = 1/2
x1 = - 3
y1 = - 2
Substituting into the point slope equation, it becomes
y - - 2 = 1/2(x - - 3)
y + 2 = 1/2(x + 3)
The equation is
y + 2 = 1/2(x + 3)
Answer: The point slope form of a straight line is expressed as y - y1 = m(x - x1)Wherem represents slope of the liney1 represents the initial value of yx1 represents the initial value of xIf two lines are parallel, it means that they have the same slope. From the equation of the given line, slope = 1/2Therefore,m = 1/2x1 = - 3y1 = - 2Substituting into the point slope equation, it becomesy - - 2 = 1/2(x - - 3)y + 2 = 1/2(x + 3)The equation is y + 2 = 1/2(x + 3)

Answer:
4.56, 4.65, 5.46, 5.64, 6.45, 6.54
Step-by-step explanation:
First we have to compare the first digits in each number as less is this digit as less is the number. So the least off all are
4.56 and 4.65
which of these two numbers is least ? Now we have to look to the 2-nd digits of these numbers:
they are 5 and 6 . 5<6 so 4.56<4.65
Lets select next numbers whicj first digit is 5. They are:
5.46 and 5.64. However the second digit of the number 5.64 -6 is bigger than the second digit of number 5.46 -4. That is why 5.46<5.64
Similarly 6.45< 6.54
Q3. Sixteen percent of Americans do not have health insurance. Suppose a simple random sample of 500 Americans is obtained. In a random sample of 500 Americans, what is the probability that more than 20% do not have health insurance?
Answer:
[tex]P(X > 100.5) = 0.0062 \\\\[/tex]
Therefore, there is 0.0062 probability that more than 20% of Americans do not have health insurance.
Step-by-step explanation:
Sixteen percent of Americans do not have health insurance. Suppose a simple random sample of 500.
From the above information,
p = 16% = 0.16
n = 500
The mean is given by
[tex]\mu = n \times p \\\\\mu = 500 \times 0.16 \\\\\mu = 80[/tex]
The standard deviation is given by
[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{n \times p(1-p)} \\\\\sigma = \sqrt{500 \times 0.16(1-0.16)} \\\\\sigma = 8.197[/tex]
What is the probability that more than 20% do not have health insurance?
We can use the Normal distribution as an approximation to the Binomial distribution since the following conditions are satisfied.
n×p ≥ 5 (satisfied)
n×(1 - p) ≥ 5 (satisfied)
So the probability is given by
500×0.20 = 100
[tex]P(X > 100) = 1 - P(X < 100)[/tex]
We need to consider the continuity correction factor whenever we use continuous probability distribution (Normal distribution) to approximate discrete probability distribution (Binomial distribution).
[tex]P(X > 100.5) = 1 - P(X < 100.5)\\\\P(X > 100.5) = 1 - P(Z < \frac{x - \mu}{\sigma} )\\\\P(X > 100.5) = 1 - P(Z < \frac{100.5 - 80}{8.197} )\\\\P(X > 100.5) = 1 - P(Z < \frac{20.5}{8.197} )\\\\P(X > 100.5) = 1 - P(Z < 2.50)\\\\[/tex]
The z-score corresponding to 2.50 is 0.9938
[tex]P(X > 100.5) = 1 - 0.9938\\\\P(X > 100.5) = 0.0062 \\\\P(X > 100.5) = 0.62\% \\\\[/tex]
Therefore, there is 0.0062 probability that more than 20% of Americans do not have health insurance.
If 5ex = 300, x = A) ln (300) = 5.703 . . . B) 5 ln (60) = 20.471 . . . C) ln (300)∕5 = 1.140 . . . D) ln (60) = 4.094 . . .
Answer:
D) ln (60) = 4.094...
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's solve for x
We'll be careful because it's exponential.
5ex = 300
ex= 300/5
ex= 60
x = e^-1(60)
Let's note that this expression e^-1 is equal to In
x= In (60)
x = 4.0943
So the value of x is equal to 4.0943

A certain group of test subjects had pulse rates with a mean of 80.9 beats per minute and a standard deviation of 10.7 beats per minute. Use the range rule of thumb to identify the limits separating values that are significantly low or significantly high. Is a pulse rate of 142.3 beats per minute significantly low or significantly high?
Answer:
We want to find the usual limits using the rule of thumb and for this case rule states that we have most of the values within 2 deviations from the mean so then we can find the usual limits like this:
[tex] \mu -2*\sigma = 80.9 -2*10.7= 59.5[/tex]
[tex] \mu +2*\sigma = 80.9 -2*10.7= 102.3[/tex]
And for this case a value of 142.3 is higher than the upper limti so then we can conclude that would be significantly high with the rule of thumb criteria
Step-by-step explanation:
For this case we have the follwing info given:
[tex] \mu = 80.9[/tex] represent the mean
[tex]\sigma = 10.7[/tex] represent the deviation
We want to find the usual limits using the rule of thumb and for this case rule states that we have most of the values within 2 deviations from the mean so then we can find the usual limits like this:
[tex] \mu -2*\sigma = 80.9 -2*10.7= 59.5[/tex]
[tex] \mu +2*\sigma = 80.9 -2*10.7= 102.3[/tex]
And for this case a value of 142.3 is higher than the upper limti so then we can conclude that would be significantly high with the rule of thumb criteria
